The first time the inhabitants of what is now Germany and what is now Hungary met, there were no nations at all. People have been communicating and trading with those from far-off lands for longer than the concept of nation even existed, which is a major contributor to why these names are so different.

True, my bad for a poor word choice. I guess ‘people’ would have been more appropriate. But I guess the rest holds.
